Lighting:
What are the different
forms of Lighting?
There are three forms of lighting:
1. Ambient lighting:
This lighting is the general, overall illumination of a room that allows
us to see the layout and help us safely through the space.
2. Task lighting:
This lighting is for the specific work we do in the space.
3. Accent lighting:
This type of lighting is used to highlight certain features in a room,
such as artwork or architecture.
What
factors do we considered while designing kitchen lighting?
As
central places for gathering and for working, kitchens demand good lighting.
When considering lighting your kitchen, begin by asking yourself what
you want to see and what you need to see. Consider the whole space,
what you'll do in the space, and where. List what you come up with,
prioritize the list, and then go about making specific lighting choices
to meet those priorities. A lighting showroom can help you realize your
vision and demonstrate various forms of lighting along the way.
What criteria should we bear in mind while designing
the bathroom lighting?
It is important to have plenty of the right light at the mirror - this
means light that casts little shadow and little glare.
Getting enough light where you want it can be accomplished by selecting
light that will work with where you decide to install them.
What
is the right Placement position for the Bath Light?
Fixtures can be placed beside the mirror, above it, on it, or in the
ceiling. Recessed lighting blends into the architecture, and can be
used to on it's own or to supplement more decorative fixtures that don't
cast much light.
What
are the latest trends in Bath lights?
Bath lighting comes in a wide range of styles, colors, and materials.
Decorative fixtures are available in various metal finishes, including
nickel, brass, and chrome, to coordinate with faucets, pulls, and hardware.
Other fixtures are primarily glass. Because colored glass colors the
light, it should be avoided at the mirror. The trim is the part of the
recessed fixture that we see. Trims are available in a number of colors
and finishes.
What
are advantages of using Dimmer Switches?
Save
on energy use and create a variety of effects with these options.
Regardless of the fixture type or its placement, it is always a good
idea to fit it with a dimmer switch. Dimmer switches allow you to alter
the atmosphere of the room by varying from bright light to nightlight.
They also save energy and increase lamp life.
What
should be the preferences for the lamp types?
There are many options for lamps, also called bulbs. You should seek
out frosted lamps or diffusing filters for all fixtures. Clear lamps
can cause glare and cast harsh shadows on the walls, ceiling, and fixture
glass—and even you!
What care should be taken while choosing art lighting?
Proper lighting of a work of art enables it to be both enjoyed and preserved.
Depending on the importance of the art in question, it may be a good
idea to consult with a lighting professional. A work can be spared premature
deterioration or fading by taking light sources, proper filtering, and
fixture placement into consideration.
What
are the different ways of doing art lightings?
There are three primary ways in which to light art. Depending on the
object to be lit and the physical condition of a given space, one can
use:
A picture light
Track lighting
What is the importance of the garden lighting?
Several spaces extend out into the landscape — either literally
or visually — through large windows. With outdoor lighting, the
link to the outside is preserved and not lost in the dark.
Whether
driving by a house, visiting it, or living inside, landscape lighting
allows us to enjoy our homes and yards in another dimension —
the night. With landscape lighting, we can display our homes, landscape
features, and plantings. We can be shown the way at sidewalks, paths,
and stairs, and we can enhance security.
